Boxes and sacks fill the stable in Kågeröd in Svalöv municipality, where Gunilla Karlsson collects everything to be sent down to eastern Ukraine.

- They are having a tough time.

Many have lost everything, says Gunilla Karlsson.

It is primarily horse owners in Stockholm, Skåne and along the west coast who have submitted material to the charity organization Equus Caballus Rescue Foundation, which works to help horses and their owners in Ukraine.

About five tons have been collected, estimates Gunilla Karlsson.

Want to help other horse owners

- We cooperate with the charity that is on the ground in Ukraine so we get information about what they need, says Gunilla Karlsson.

What makes you committed to this project?

- I am a horse owner myself, so I hope that if it was me who was in the same situation, someone else would have done it for me, says Gunilla Karlsson.
